employee of any licensee, shall sell, give or deliver any alcoholic liquor to any person under the age of twenty one (21) years.

B. Secondary Transfer Prohibited: No person, after purchasing or otherwise obtaining alcoholic

liquor, shall sell, give or deliver such alcoholic liquor to any person under the age of twenty one (21) years; provided, however, that this provision shall not prohibit the consumption of alcoholic liquor by a person under the age of twenty one (21) years in the performance of a religious ceremony or service, and provided further, however, that this provision shall not prevent the consumption of alcoholic liquor by a minor in his or her own home pursuant to the condonation and supervision of his or her parent or legal guardian.

C. Identification Required: If a licensee or his or her officer, associate, member, representative,

of age. For the purpose of preventing a violation of this section, any licensee, or his or her agent or employee, may refuse to sell or serve alcoholic beverages to any person who is unable to produce adequate written evidence of identity and of the fact that he or she is twenty one (21) years of age or older.

Proof that the licensee, or his or her officer, associate, member, representative, employee or agent, demanded, was shown and reasonably relied on such written evidence in any transaction forbidden by this section is an affirmative defense in any proceeding for the suspension or revocation of any license based on the occurrence of such forbidden transaction.

shall be displayed at all times, in a prominent and conspicuous place, a printed card measuring not less than eight and one-half inches by eleven inches (81/2" x 11") in not less than 24-point arial or helvetica bold font reading substantially as follows: WARNING TO PERSONS UNDER 21: YOU ARE SUBJECT TO A FINE OF UP TO $500 UNDER THE LAW OF THE VILLAGE OF ANTIOCH IF YOU PURCHASE ALCOHOLIC LIQUOR OR IF YOU MISREPRESENT YOUR AGE FOR THE PURPOSE OF PURCHASING OR OBTAINING ALCOHOLIC LIQUOR.
